I Didn't Say It

Richard Grenell, homocon and former Inmate# P01135809 official, on Ron DeSantis’ anti-LGBTQ+ video that was created by the same staffer who made the infamous DeSantis “Nazi” video:

“What he did in that video was completely homophobic, terrible dialing us back, and he lost a lot of suburban women. We have to have a society where we allow adults to live their lives as long as you’re not hurting somebody else. And so I think that that’s the policy that [Inmate# P01135809] absolutely had in his last administration. And he is showing to be somebody who is not taking the bait on these radical policies. There’s a whole bunch in that video that crosses the line. That wasn’t just about protecting children under the age of 18, that was going after gay adults. That’s unacceptable. I’ve worked way too hard in my career to allow a presidential candidate to dial us back like that. I believe that Ron DeSantis ruined his chances for 2028. Nobody wants to see a homophobe take over the Republican Party again.”

Funny, this self-loathing asshat had no problem supporting a president who literally erased the White House LGBTQ+ page his first day in office; he erased it, as if we don’t exist and don’t matter.

Richard, really Dick, Grenell can take his faux DeSantis outrage and shove it.

Roger Stone, traitor and QAnon nutjob, using his faux Christianity as a money beg for his legal woes:

“On the morning of January 6, I was in the shower. The lord came to me in the shower—you want to make fun of me? Go ahead. A voice clearly told me, do not go to the Capitol. And I did not go to the Capitol. Yes, the Lord does send you a message. He does speak to you. And you need to speak to him. Like when the day after the election, I was in Memphis. I was headed to Mike Lindell’s studio. The car that I was riding in with two security guards was broadsided. The car was demolished, was totaled. They were both injured. I walked away without a scratch.”

Yes, please you so-called Christians who support Stone and Inmate # P01135809, tell us you truly believe that God came to Roger Stone in the shower.

Ain’t nobody, even God who, if you believe She exists, wants to see that loose-skinned sack of flesh nekkid in the shower. But the MAGAt Christians will buy Stone’s story and send money to help another criminal pay his own debts.

Nikki Haley, GOP presidential flip-flopper, on Inmate # P01135809:

“First of all, he’s innocent until proven guilty. But you are implying that the American people are not smart. The American people are not going to vote for a convicted criminal. The American people are going to vote for someone who can win a general election. I have faith in the American people. They know what they need to do. And so, I think that, yes, I will support the Republican nominee always, and I will make sure that that person, we’re going to pick someone that’s going to beat a President Kamala Harris. Because we can’t have a President Kamala Harris or we’ll never get our country back.”

Does she ever remember what she says? I mean, here she is saying the American people are too smart to vote for a convicted criminal, and just a couple of weeks ago she said onstage at the GOP debate that she would support Inmate # P01135809 for president even if he was convicted of a felony. So, is she not an American because she’ll support a criminal or is she stupid because she’ll support a criminal?

One thing is clear, Nimrata Haley believes the people don’t hear what she says one minute and then her new opinion the next minute.

Marsha Blackburn, GOP Senator from Tennessee

“I think the one that deserves our attention at the top of the list is President Biden, who is to be the leader of the free world And when you see Joe Biden struggle with words, with days, with times, with places, then it drives home the point of how important it is to have someone who is capable in leadership. I don’t think anybody wants to have a President Kamala Harris. I’ve talked to people who were with [Mitch McConnell] right after that, and he was alert and fine and moving forward, asking questions, very involved with the meeting that he was attending and seemed to be on top of his game.”

Yes, Marsha Blackburn, she of the dead muskrat on her head, thinks Mitch McConnell freezing up like a robot on the fritz is nothing at all, but Joe Biden is a demented evil genius running a covert government and trying to convict Inmate # P01135809.

Seriously, Tennessee, is this your best?

Maxine Waters, Democratic Congresswoman and keynote speaker for this year’s US Conference on HIV/AIDS, blasting her GOP colleagues for proposing cuts to both national and international HIV programs:

“[Not reauthorizing this program] would endanger the lives of millions of people around the world who are living with HIV and risk the lives of millions more who are at risk. Moreover, it would undermine the United States leadership on global health issues. [The program’s $6 billion annual budget is] our money. That’s the people’s money. You cannot decide who you’re going to spend it on and who you’re not going to spend it on. The rate of new HIV diagnosis among African Americans is about eight times that of whites, and the rate among Latinos is about four times that of whites. Black gay and bisexual men face especially high-risk accounting for more than 9,000 new HIV diagnoses in 2019. And furthermore, Black women account for more than half. Fifty-five percent of new HIV diagnoses are among Black women, and [Republicans] are talking about cutting [HIV funding] when there is still a crisis and Black women are at the head of that crisis? Hell no.  We are worthy. We are worthwhile. We deserve to have support of the public…to build safe lives. If you think we’re going away quietly because you think you have the votes in the House, you have another damn thing coming. “

This is the GOP’s latest attack on the LGBTQ+ community, on women in this country, and on people of color in this country, acting as if their health concerns don’t matter because of their sexual orientation or because the GOP is still mired in the HIV/AIDS bigotry from the crisis first began.

Vote them all out and elect compassionate people to represent all of us in Congress.

Tuesday Thought #2

Bobservations

Carlos does a lot of research into his eyesight and anything that can be done to help it. The latest thing is saffron—which he pronounces say-fren—and so he wanted to buy some. I found some at our local grocer which was nice because I thought we’d have to drive out to this Middle Eastern market we love.

Cut to a few weeks later, and we’re in the grocery and Carlos says:

We need more sayfren.

Saffron.

Whatever.

He asks where it is and I tell him it’s on the far side of the store, last aisle, right hand side, halfway down, eye level with the Mexican spices and dried peppers—what can I say, I am good with directions—and off he goes.

But he doesn’t come back when I think he should so I go off in search, and there he is … far side of the store, last aisle, right hand side,  about a quarter way down the aisle looking at the bottom shelf, where the Thai spices and coconut milk sit.

I walk past and mutter:

Far side of the store, last aisle, right hand side,  halfway down, eye level with the Mexican spices and dried peppers and here it is.

Oh, good.

Goddess love him.

Now, onto the rest of the Bobservations that are _____ heavy because I am disgusted by what this traitorous rapist is doing to America and if we don’t vote his flabby orange ass from office in November, I don’t know if we’ll ever recover from him.

After Trump calls it unfair, the DOJ reduced his BFF Roger Stone’s sentencing recommendation, and four DOJ prosecutors resigned in disgust.

The criminals are running the show people. Pay fucking attention.

Last fall, before his heart attack, Bernie Sanders promised to release his medical records before the first votes were cast … last week. He said the “American people have a right to know whether the person they’re going to be voting for for president is healthy. And we will certainly release our medical records before the primary.” But Iowa came and went, and New Hampshire happened, but Bernie is singing a different tune:

“I mean, you can start releasing medical records and it never ends. We’ve released a substantive part—all of our background. We have doctors who have, cardiologists confirming that I am in good health. I am in good health.”

But that’s not what you promised, Bernie, and it makes you sound like _____ with his taxes. And considering you had a heart attack after that first statement … give us some transparency man.

In just another in a long line of reasons why she would never get my vote—like she ever would—this presidential hopeful Tulsi Gabbard defended _____’s decision to fire Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman for being a patriot.

Tulsi, c’mon. Come out already … you’re a Republican.

You wanna know where America’s headed under ____? Think on this … This week IMPOTUS praised China’s death penalty for drug dealers.

Deal drugs in China? Die. Rape women in the US? You’re the President.

More on ____? Remember that Iran attack on the American Airbase in Iraq last month?

Remember when _____ said there were no injuries? Then said there were 25 …then 34 …then over 50 traumatic brain injuries that he compared to headaches?

New report says there were more than 100 Americans injured in that attack. Thanks to _____.

Palette Cleanser needed … So, I give you Alberto García Cabrera. Mr. Spain 2010  and noncommissioned officer of the Air Force who combines the best that his passion for modeling and his military profession can.

Alberto supports and collaborates with the organization "Orphans of the Air Force " that cares for the orphans of the military and civilian personnel of the Air Force and of the Common Defense Corps.

And he looks damned hot doing it.
